  1. After doing the above I suggest parking your car in front of your garage door. Turn on your lights and look for the top line of your headlights against the garage door. Get some tape out and mark that point. Keep turning the adjustment. If it goes up or doesnt move, try turning the adjustment in the other direction. You should evenually to a low enough point that is reasonable. Then go park say a car length behind another car and adjust your lights till you cant see in their rear window. Go back and park against your garage then try and even up both lights. Then test on the another cars rear window. If you cant see in its all good. If you do then re-adjust your lights. Hope that helps. i parked mine about 3 car lengths behind another car and did that. My driver side light is lower than the passenger side light tho so I dont blind on coming traffic.

  11. Guys, XR6 Turbo would beat the stivo stock vs stock. In terms of $$ value of mods $5k of mods on a XR6t vs 5k on a stivo .. the XR6T would BLITZ the stivo. Some CHEAP mods available to easily obtain 290-300kw at the wheels. Also the 6 speed AUTO is faster than the manual transmission in the ford.
  12. Spotted yesterday (Saturday) on Lane Cove Road heading West - Silver Stivo with male driver and dumped on stock rims. pre face lift model at 11:45am Spotted Friday: Silver stivo parked on Kent st (i think) near the PWC building near the turn on to the harbour bridge lowered on chrome rims.
  13. what u mean extra parts? i thought it comes with everything except the tools to tighten it up
  14. 4300-4500K HID? why not go 4300-4500K globes same brightness less cash same colour temperature. different brightness or rather lumens. halogens will never be same as Xenons, sorry. Agreed - HID alot brighter if ur concerned about brightness get the bulbs then .. wont have the same look tho
  15. Bill - uve donated ur engine and installing a Prius engine right? u turned enviro and the fuel prices hurting too much. :P
  16. Thanks to Bruce as well for pushing things on the NZ side of things as well Yer thanks guys for all the effort and time put into tracking it down No thanks to NZPost or AUPost for being incompetent
  17. black stivo giving it some on mona vale rd st.ives tonight
  18. guys in addition I think that your insurance is for the replacement of CAR value only and not mods. So if your car is a write off you'll get a new rolla - stock. they wont replace installation of the mods except stereo i think Anyone clarify?
  19. its a 2005 model mercedes stock headunit with 10(?) speakers
  20. Hi guys, Posting this thread here because its non toyota related. The headunit in my Merc C-200k just stopped working yesterday. I drove around with radio on, parked and turned car off as normal Come back and the lights light up but no noise out of my speakers .. alot of the functions were not working either i.e. I could not change to AM and I could not insert a CD. Anyone experienced anything like this before? My car lights and engine etc all work still
  21. seems a tad slow for 240kw in a corolla - need to remove those subs and i reckon easy 12s :)

    Camera Advice

    well have you decided yet ??? Yup gonna get the canon Ixus 55 coz its best value for money for my needs. panasonic FX01 takes bad indoors and night shots pentax a10 was worth a look but didnt get great reviews in its focus department ixus 65 is nice but basically smae thing with half inch bigger LCD and 6mp instead of 5mp. fuji V10 was good but heard it breaks easy

    Camera Advice

    eggbert - what u think of the ixus 55? U reckon is worth $100-150 more for the ixus 65? Think i can get for $480 the ixus 750 is nice but around $570 I paid $515 for mine .. baised though ... I really like my canon alot .. advantage of the 750 as well is its awesomely quick boot time and massive screen !!!! i was looking at the panasonic FX 01 as well! except if you have seen the shots it produces in low light situations its crap! check out the sample shots at www.dpreview.com outdoor shots are awesome (bit better than a canon - no purple fringing and bright) and the 28mm lens allows more content to fit in a single photo. Has image stabilisation lens too Also the battery life is really good, but ive read that the canon battery life is poor in comparison especially using the LCD. Panasonic has no viewfinder tho - only a LCD but it seems like new cameras are moving towards that direction e.g. ixus 65 Only issue i have is that u get more shake using a LCD rather than the viewfinder Guys my decision Ixus 55 - aug 2005 model, 5MP, 2.5inch LCD $385 or Ixus 65 - March 2006 model, 6MP, 3inch LCD, no viewfinder $480 Any other options?
